Micro SD Card in Blackberry Phone Requires Formatting

"My Blackberry powered off when I was taking pictures. Then, I changed a battery and turned on the phone and wanted to continue to take pictures. Here comes the problem. When I turned on the phone, it says that I need to format the memory card before I can use it. I don’t know why it asks me to format the micro SD card, but what I know is that I cannot format it. So I switch off the phone and remove the micro SD card. When I reinserted the card back to the phone, it reports the same error message. I don’t know if there is something wrong with my Blackberry phone, but I really want to get back files stored on the micro SD card? How to restore memory card after format? Can you tell me how to recover files from an corrupted micro SD card when memory card has RAW format on Blackberry phone?"
